Miami City Commission to consider two Watson Island developments
Posted by Admin on Jun 27, 2024 | 0 commentsLong-delayed developments on Watson Island are back on the drawing board and two new projects could go before voters on the November ballot. Miami city commissioners will consider on Thursday two new plans for the small isle on the MacArthur Causeway, which connects Miami to Miami Beach.
One of them would change the proposal for an eco-adventure hotel next to Jungle Island, which was approved by voters in 2018 and could be closed for months during the redevelopment. ESJ Capital Partners, which bought the 18-acre theme park for $60 million in 2017, has partnered with developer Terra to build a luxury condominium tower instead.
